This sheet metal plate is a wear component for the straw chopper assembly on a combine harvester. It is mounted on the chopper rotor housing and serves as a stationary counter-edge against which the rotating flails or knives shear the straw. The plate directs the chopped material toward the rear of the machine for even distribution across the field. Over time, the impact of straw and debris wears the surface of the plate, which can reduce chopping efficiency and lead to uneven spread patterns. The manufacturer produces this part to match the original mounting-hole pattern and curvature of the housing, so no modification is needed during installation.
